The recent crypto selloff hasn’t shaken Raoul Pal’s confidence - if anything, it’s strengthened it. The Real Vision founder believes the market’s short-term chaos hides a much bigger story: the steady, unstoppable march toward a digital financial future.
Posting to X, Pal dismissed the latest price swings as “noise,” arguing that investors focused on leverage or short-term profits are missing the broader picture. He said the only questions that truly matter are whether the world continues to digitize – and whether global liquidity remains abundant. As long as both trends stay intact, he believes the long-term case for Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies remains as strong as ever.
Pal’s message reflects his broader macro thesis that money, technology, and capital are converging in a way that will continue to reward digital assets. He sees liquidity still rising globally as governments and businesses roll over massive debts, fueling investment into risk assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
For him, temporary selloffs are simply the cost of participating in a market undergoing a historic transformation. His advice to followers was blunt: stop trying to time the market and focus on the next decade. In classic Raoul Pal style, he ended his message with his signature phrase – “BTFD and don’t f* this up.”
His optimism mirrors comments from other major investors who see opportunity in the recent turmoil. Billionaire Paul Tudor Jones recently called Bitcoin’s current weakness “the calm before the storm,” predicting that its next major rally could be one of the strongest yet.
Meanwhile, the numbers show that large investors may be quietly following Pal’s playbook. Data from Coinglass reported Bitcoin trading near $112,000 after dropping sharply to $102,000 earlier in the week. Futures volume soared over 150%, showing that institutional traders remain highly active despite the volatility.
Blockchain analytics firm Lookonchain also detected a surge in whale accumulation. Two wallets linked to institutional buyers pulled over 33,000 ETH – worth around $126 million – from major exchanges. Another entity purchased roughly $55 million in Ethereum through over-the-counter channels, signaling renewed interest from deep-pocketed investors.
For Pal, moves like these aren’t coincidences – they’re signals that smart money is positioning for what he sees as the next big upcycle in digital assets. His outlook remains clear: as liquidity expands and technology advances, crypto will continue to lead global markets into the digital age.
